Please keep her and her family in your prayers. I've had a cold for over a week now. Just the old sore throat and stuffy nose thing. Nothing to write blog about.

Communication Lessons from Shakespeare While going through my email files, I found the following quote: "Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood." ~William Shakespeare Shakespeare packs quite a lot into this one line and I thought it so profound that I wanted to disect it to get the full impact of what he is saying here.

This Father's Day, instead of giving Dad a tie or a soap on a rope, why not give him the gift of appreciation? Why not communicate with him and tell him how much you love him and what he has done all these years that has made you who you are? Why not share who you are with him and make him feel special.

Want a unique and special gift for Dad this year? Tell him exactly what he means to you! Words...it's...
